MONDAY MOVIE MEME
Molly looked around for a weekly meme about movies and did not have any luck. So therefore she decided to start her own! Andy will play along as well - hopefully you will too. Go to your blog and create your own post on the topic, linking back to us in your post, then come back and leave a link to your post here in our Comments section. If you don’t have a blog, just share your response in the Comments section.
This week's movie topic is all about Brothers...
We just returned from a weekend get-away to Philadelphia - the City of Brotherly Love. So of course, this week's theme is all about brothers. There are lots of portrayals out there - good brothers, mean brothers, crazy brothers and laugh out loud funny brothers. Here are a few that came to mind. Share on your blog your selection of movie brothers, linking back here at The Bumbles. And don't forget to visit your fellow participants!
- Dead Ringers (1988) - Jeremy Irons turned in two chilling roles in this movie about evil identical twin gynecologists
- Stuck on You (2003) - Matt Damon & Greg Kinnear as conjoined twins in a Farrelly Brothers film that was actually not as terrible of a comedy as it sounds
- The Blues Brothers (1980) - Brothers with soul, on a musical mission from God
- Slapshot (1977) - Paul Newman was great, but the Hanson brothers stole the show

The only one here I didn't see is Dead Ringer. I'll have to check it out. Gosh, the Blues Brothers are just classic.
Oh, The Blues Brothers--a movie with special resonance, not to mention a great soundtrack!
Were there brothers in Good Will Hunting? Can't remember.
Hope you had a great time in Philly.
What a fabulous list! Jake and Elwood are secular idols here in Chicago. The Hansens (and their enduring love of Speed Racer) still make me smile. I agree that Stuck on You was sweet and merry and not at all tasteless (OK, it's a Farrelly Bros movie so it's a little tasteless). And Dead Ringers. EW! ICK! I've only seen it once and will never, ever see it again. It was freaking HORRIFYING! Which means it was successful, right?
I have two sets of movie brothers to add to your list ...

I've heard of the Blues brothers. I have to admit I haven't heard of the rest. I did think of a few I enjoyed watching. Kaye—the road goes ever ever on

Here is my list. Can't wait to read everyone else's.
Here's mine! http://forgetfulone.blogspot.com/2010/05/monday-movie-meme_24.html
Loved the Blues Brothers but haven't heard of the others.
I actually thought Stuck on You was very sweet. Of course, I love Matt Damon and will pretty much watch anything with him in it!
The first one that came to mind for me was A River Runs Through It. A sentimental favorite.
I didn't write one but love your themes! I will check back for the next time u do this. (I thought of the 4 brothers in the godfather)
is that weird?
Man...I can't think of a good one :)
mine are up! So late but here it is!
I'm sorry I missed this one. Dead Ringers sounds familiar.
Yes, 10 days after getting back from vacation I have just now made it to the THE's is my Google Reader :)
